This Awesome Astronomy episode is inspired by last week's incredible SpaceX launch and listeners' requests to talk a bit more about SpaceX and the advances in commercial spaceflight. In this Podcast Extra, we're joined by spaceflight aficionado Gavin Price (@pilliarscreatio) to discuss:

• The inaugural Falcon Heavy launch and what it achieved
• Was the launch awesome or all hype?
• How good is the Falcon Heavy really?
• Will Falcon Heavy or Elon's next ambitious rocket make NASA's rocket redundant?
• How about other organisations? (ULA/Arianne/Blue origin etc)
• Where do the commercial companies leave the likes of Soyuz? (TsSKB-Progress)
• Where do we see access to space in ten, fifteen, twenty years time?
• Will Elon make good on his plan to colonize Mars?
